Cannabis and Inflammatory Pain

The endocannabinoid system is highly involved in regulating pain and inflammation. Research shows that cannabinoids, such as CBD, CBG, CBDA, CBGA and CBN, can reduce pro-inflammatory and enhance anti-inflammatory compounds called cytokines and prostaglandins, improving symptoms in conditions like arthritis. Clinically patients report improved mobility, less pain, better sleep, and quality of life. These non-impairing cannabinoids are generally well tolerated and are not addictive, with little to no side effects once dosing is established.
